- Enjoy high quality Japanese classical dance ”Zashikimai” performance and Zen meditation at Kenchoji Temple in Kamakura!
- Zashikimai is a stage art in which the dancers express the subtle movements of the human heart in unison with the sounds of songs and shamisen music.
- In recent years, the Zashikimai has been widely seen on stage, but in the past, it was performed by lighting candlesticks in the tatami room of a house and enjoying the calm dancing in the shadows.
- This is a rare opportunity to see a leading figure of Zashikimai at the distance of a traditional Zashikimai.
- For the 1:00 p.m. performance, Zen meditation set ticket is also available to enjoy zen meditation after the show.
